The Wizard of Oz (1939) (May Madness Re-Release)
May 27, 2021 00:39 - 1 hour - 61.1 MBWhy are we re-releasing this episode? Because it's May Madness folks! Each week of May Madness we will re-release an episode we think pairs well with the movie of the week, and conveniently place it at the top of your feed. This week may seem a little left field, but the mysterious land of Oz certainly has some parallels with the mysterious land of Tune. Unconventional crew of heroes? Courage that was with them all along? You get the idea. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information...

Worrell, Space Jam takes the unquestionably high-brow sub-genre of movies based on TV ads to new heights. We go from Earth, to space to Tuneland which is (apparently u...

Each week of May Madness we will re-release an episode we think pairs well with the movie of the week, and conveniently place it at the top of your feed. This week, it was kind of a no-brainer right?

Mortal Kombat (Paul WS Anderson, 1995)
May 16, 2021 14:00 - 1 hour - 79.5 MB119 - May Madness continues! How do I even introduce this movie? It's the one we saw as kids that people kinda think is good now? There's a new one that appears to be polarising? there was one in between that was terrible? We are talking of course about Mortal Kombat! But what makes a good Mortal Kombat film, or video game film for that matter? We unpack this very question along with many others, including several about whatever it is that Christopher Lambert is doing in this thing. The me...
Total Recall (1990) (May Madness Re-Release)

Each week of May Madness we will re-release an episode we think pairs well with the movie of the week, and conveniently place it at the top of your feed. This week, we figured that the movie that launched Carolco into the lat pack stratosphere (latosphere?), would pair extremely well with another iconic Carolco joint, Total Recall. Enjoy!

First Blood (Ted Kotcheff, 1982)
May 09, 2021 14:00 - 1 hour - 77.1 MB117 - May Madness continues with the film that launched a bunch of seemingly unrelated and confusingly titled sequels - First Blood. This is the go to movie for anyone that rushes to the defence of Stallone's acting ability, and they wouldn't be wrong. This film plays to all of his strengths. It's one of those rare films that is so different to the broader franchise it's a part of, that it's always worth a second look. So join us as we break this thing down from its humble origins, to rewrit...
Beetlejuice (1988) (May Madness Re-Release)

Each week of May Madness we will re-release an episode we think pairs well with the movie of the week, and conveniently place it at the top of your feed. Batman and Beetlejuice have always been a pair in some respects - they came out a year apart from the creative minds and actions of Tim Burton & Michael Keaton - it just makes sense!

Hard Target (John Woo, 1993)
August 16, 2020 14:00 - 1 hour - 65.7 MB080 - It's JCVD week again, and we are re-visiting his second movie from 1993 - Hard Target. This movie is HISTORIC, not just for the mullet, or the motorbike surfing, or rattlesnake-punching, but it's also the first Hollywood studio picture to be helmed by an Asian director. That's right, it's John Woo, in his first American picture, and while he doesn't fully unleash the Woo, his trademarks are all over this thing. Plus Wilford Brimley is in this, what else do you want? So join us as we un...

This film capped off an incredible hot streak for the auteur - he had become the hottest director in town and could make anything he gosh-darn wanted. Need proof? Just look at this cast, it is STACKED. Too long to list here so we won't even try. This film was also Burton's first big flop, and would prove to become the first speed bump on what went on to be a much bumpier career from this point on. But what...
